Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground chicken (or lamb/beef for variations)
- 1 large Onion, finely chopped
- 4 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 2 Green chilies, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Chickpea flour (besan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chilies.
Add the garam masala, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, black pepper, and salt to the mixture. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Stir in the chopped fresh coriander leaves and lemon juice. Mix thoroughly.
Add the olive oil and chickpea flour to the meat mixture. The chickpea flour helps bind the kebabs, so ensure it is evenly mixed in.
Once all ingredients are well combined, cover the bowl and let the mixture marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for best results.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and shape each portion around skewers to form elongated kebabs.
If using a grill, oil the grates lightly to prevent sticking and place the kebabs on the grill. Cook for about 10 minutes on each side, turning occasionally until cooked through.
If baking, place the kebabs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
Serve hot with a side of salad or wrap in flatbreads for a fuller meal.
